GeoExpress with MrSID®


GeoExpress is a powerful software package for managing, distributing and accessing complex geospatial imagery.

Create, manage, access and distribute massive geospatial imagery such as aerial photos and satellite images more quickly and cost-effectively using industry-leading GeoExpress with MrSID®. Whether you need to share imagery across the hall or around the world, GeoExpress enables fast, efficient distribution while preserving the fine details of original imagery. Powerful image management tools for reprojection, area of interest encoding, multi-resolution mosaicking and more, streamline your workflow, save you time and increase the value of your existing imagery. GeoExpress is compatible with all common raster image formats, including TIFF, GeoTIFF and ERDAS Imagine®. There's more to MrSID than compression—a lot more.

Overview

GeoExpress 5.0 streamlines image processing and sets a new standard in functionality and interoperability. Designed for geospatial professionals who demand the most from their geospatial imagery, GeoExpress 5.0 is packed with a robust set of image management tools to save you time and increase the value of your imagery. Create, manage, access and distribute massive geospatial imagery such as aerial photos and satellite images without compromising image resolution or quality.

Save Time
With a powerful set of image manipulation tools right at your fingertips, GeoExpress 5.0 makes image manipulation tasks easier to accomplish in less time. Quickly and easily repurpose compressed imagery with mosaicking, reprojection, tile updates, cropping and more.

Combine Imagery from Different Sources
In a single step, combine data in different projections into one seamless mosaic with the image reprojection feature included in GeoExpress 5.0. Reproject raw imagery or JPEG 2000 imagery to MrSID format. Reproject existing MrSID imagery to new MrSID imagery without having to revert to TIFF or other raw formats.

Comply with Government Image Standards
Predefined JPEG 2000 image profiles, only in GeoExpress 5.0, guarantee that your imagery consistently meets the NATO and NGA (National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency) EPJE (Exploitation Preferred JPEG 2000 Encoding) and NPJE (NSIF/BIIF/NITF Preferred JPEG 2000 Encoding) image encoding standards.

Highlight Areas of Interest
Make a specific area within a larger image stand out in detail by specifying different compression ratios within a single image or a mosaic. Preserve just the area of interest as high quality with a low compression ratio, dramatically reducing the size of the overall image file for efficient storage and distribution. Obscure a sensitive or classified area within an image by applying low resolution, high compression to just that region.

Make Existing Imagery More Useful
Get more value from existing image stores by combining any combination of supported image formats and images with differing resolution into one seamless mosaic.

Update Existing Image Mosaics
Build on the work you've already done by easily adding new imagery to an existing mosaic without starting from scratch--no need to create a new mosaic each time the imagery is updated. Optionally preserve the underlying image data so you can maintain historical information.

Deliver High-Quality Imagery Every Time
User-defined image profiles, standard image profiles for JPEG 2000 and predefined NPJE and EPJE image profiles ensure consistent results throughout a project. Whether encoding raw imagery to MrSID or JPEG 2000 format, you can rely on GeoExpress for superior quality imagery, highly compressed for easy electronic distribution, with even the finest details intact.

Work With the Applications You Need to Make Crucial Decisions
GeoExpress 5.0 is designed for interoperability with the widest range of leading geospatial applications from ESRI, Leica Geosystems, Autodesk and Intergraph, MapInfo, Bentley, and GE/Smallworld, to name a few, enabling your customers and partners to view MrSID imagery using their existing software.

Free viewers are available for most common platforms enabling your customers to view imagery exactly as it appears in the original format.
